hello!! a lovely modly reached out to me on EMP and i have a couple questions regarding michael and FNAF specifically before applying.
the first being, while i'm assuming the mods are familiar with FNAF since he was so kindly invited over, FNAF is also a giant mess of several plot holes and inconsistencies and a general lack of solid story/character information to go on. i do have a history post detailing at least what i think makes sense for michael during the original 6 games, but it doesn't include any information from supplementary material like the novels (which he is apparently in some of the short stories,) or any of the new Steel Wool games (Help Wanted/Security Breach) or the upcoming movie in October. i'd just like to make sure that'd still be okay to app in like that, he's like 75% headcanon 25% canon.
second question is his whole zombie...ness. i have written up an anatomy reference post that goes into more detail, mostly i'd just like to make sure my silly headcanons still fall in the realm of believability and i'm happy to backup anything i can with canon info if need be! i would like to bring michael in as post-canon as i can for him, which would be FNAF6 Pizzeria Simulator and his second (sort of?? this series is weird) death in the fire rather than like immediately post-scoop, so he's a cranky old guy that's been technically dead for 30+ years at that point and he's stuck as a lost soul in a dead body that can't move on. i do have ideas for why he'd agree to help and what he can do here, he just might have problems with stairs lmao
i might have a few other questions after this but will leave it there for now, and once again thank you very much modfolk for reaching out and inviting me in the first place that was really sweet of you c:
